I'm doing that as much as I can facilitating solo in the Belly of the Beast,
though I am in an unsustainable and marginalized situation as adjunct
bottom-feeder in:

mon dieu! how come I haven't got any health insurance?

I have 40 undergraduates in a course "Meaning of Info Technology" & am breaking
numerous protocols in the classroom:

"Non-doing defines doing. Sitting in stillness invites people to move. Getting
out of the way allows people to fill space with their passion. Letting go of
expectations leaves room for responsibility to come forth. All of this is
integrity. Every piece of doing requires the strong presence of non-doing to
anchor it.

     Stifling every impulse to intervene, to give directions and orders leaves 
space for others to design their lives. You can create a container and then 
stand by and watch it fill and teem with life. You don’t resist the natural 
movements of groups of people co-creating their futures. Instead you work on 
your own inability to be still, to want to own the outcomes, to want to invest 
your ego.

     This is not your show. You are holding space, embodying space and being 
empty and full at the same time. If they thank you in the closing circle, you 
have not done enough." — The Tao of Holding Space, Chris Corrigan

und so weiter ...
